      Hey Jon..... You asked for feedback, so I'm offering some....

      When I go to place 5 wagers, I uncheck "same amount for all wagers" and check "Risk Amount". Then, when I click "Continue", I have to input "wager" amount. In other words, if I want to wager different amounts on all 5 bets, I have to calculate what the risk amount should be and enter the "to win" amount in the boxes. It's a bit of a pain in the ass when I'm betting 6 games in MLB with lines of +141, +153, -170, etc. I wish I could just enter "Risk" amounts in those boxes like I can at DSI.

      Thanks for listening.

                Can't wait for this!! The site works just fine on the iPhone, but a mobile site will make BI that much better. Making a deposit today, ready for football!

                  Just dropping in to say thanks BI. With the ties winning on teasers and the free 1/2 pt on straights, you're the perfect Book for action junkies like myself.

                      I'm not playing here till they stop stealing cents from their members. Quit acting like blackie at rebate wager and rise above. I think it's even worse for me to go through and calculate the change you steal from me each other and then go ask for it back. You're making enough you don't need to nickel and dime your customers.

                          Hi guys,

                          Thanks for all the feedback.

                          Our software is set up to round up bets it can work both ways rounding up or down , this applies more towards players that wish lower limits than our standard.

                          It can cost a player a few cents or a dollar per week which I am more than happy to credit back in their account and then some if they just contact me , I am a PM away.

                          I apologize for any hassle.

                          Freefall contact me with your account number and I will be more than happy to credit back your account rarely do any clients complaint about this so I will make sure you get credited.

                          Just a heads up , I am hoping our new mobile site will be ready to go tonight.

                          Thanks!

                          Jon

                            Unlike Blackie's ripoff joint, BI's rounding works to the bettor's advantage too. For example, if you bet $50 on Houston +155 today, instead of potentially winning $77.50, your win amount is $78. So your claim of BI making extra nickels and dimes is absurd. It works both ways, and all you have to do is adjust your bet to avoid being on the wrong side of the rounding.

                                    I;m in a hurry, but I had to stop by to give kudos to Nick for making me aware of "rolling if wagers". Youda man, Nick. Thanks for the help. And I didn't catch the name of the wagering department guy that helped me, but he was incredibly awesome. Give him a raise! LOL.... It's never been so easy to get an offshore bet in. You guys are great!

                                                              Hi Magic,

                                                              Everyone is entitled to their opinion , but as you can see our payouts , customer service , betting offers speak for themselves. We do take up to $5000 per side and have sent payouts in 5 figures easily.

                                                              Like I have stated before the day anyone can find a complaint in which there was even a payout delay then I will accept the bad rep but we have proven to be a top out for US players with same day payouts that usually take 2 to 3 hours and our checks 2 to 3 working days. Payouts speak louder than words.

                                                              Have a great night guys !

                                                              New bonuses coming soon

                                                              Cheers,

                                                                Why should we trust you? This Book has decent limits and props. It services a $10 player as well as a nickel bettor. What's your beef with BI?

For example, if you bet $50 on Houston +155 today, instead of potentially winning $77.50, your win amount is $78. So your claim of BI making extra nickels and dimes is absurd. It works both ways, and all you have to do is adjust your bet to avoid being on the wrong side of the rounding.
                                                                      would you like your bank rounding up and down? Would you like your stock positions rounding up and down?

                                                                      Then why the f\*\*k would I want my bookie doing that?
